PENoBscoT COUNTY.

Last Saturday night after the evening per
formance OF Ler0ux IL Wilton's circus at
Bangor, about twenty-five drunken roughs
assembled and began throwing stones at the
circus men, about half dozen in number,
who were taking down the circus tents. The
roughs drove the circus men up the road
nearly to the Bangor House, and then re-
turned to their former place and began
stoning passers by, and using abusive Ian
guage. A number OF people going home
wards down the street had stones hit them,
and Others did not dare to go that way. At
last the police were sent for, and soon four
ofnceIs made their appearance. As soon as
the hoodlums saw the officers they all
made lively tracks and got out Of the way as
soon as possible.

IN GENERAL.
The business of exporting apples from
Maine to England which has fiourished so
well in other years, will be likely to prove a
failure this season. Mr.. z. A. Gilbert, sec
retary of the State Board of Agriculture
said Saturday that the fruit crop of the State
would be extremely light, less than a third
OF last year.. The prospect is looking worse
every day, the fruit set suffering from insect
pests. Yet, he says, Names outlook is bet
ter than that of any other New England
State. j. Pope & Son of Manchester, the
largest apple growers in Kennebec county
say their crop will be small.

Protected by His Adopted Govern

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-Richard Raebin-
ger came to this country from Orletsburg,
Germany, 1875. He settled on farm near
Shelbyville, Ill. In December, 1886. he went
back to Germany on visit to his parents.
He was arrested for not having served the
regular time in the army. The following
day he was escorted into the presence Of
Col Benson, a sort of judge advocate of
that military division. Col. Benson at Oncead
ministered terrible rebuke upon him and
all Americans, and after lecturing him ask
ed his naturalization papers and said he was
an American citizen. In spite of this he
was eventually sentenced to imprisonment
in the .penitentiary at Breslau, where he
was subjected to severe treatment. Mean
while Raebinger's father was not idle. He
communicated with his friends in this
country as soon as his son was arrested, and
the matter was laid before the Department
of State of the United States What steps
Secretary Bayard took are unknown to Rae
binger, but that he adopted speedy and effec-
tive means for the release of this American
citizen, is evidenced by the fact that Rae
binger was released after being in the Bres-
Ian prison two weeks.
